Everyone is a Theologian

Theology sounds like something reserved for academics and brainiacs. But it's not! Theology means "words about God". So if you talk about God (or even just think about God!), you're a theologian.The real question is: How do we do theology well?

From Series: "Theology for the Rest of Us"

Mention “theology” and watch everyone shrink back in their chairs. Words like Trinity, Sovereignty and Eschatology scare us away from asking good questions about God, about faith and Christianity. But that’s not how it’s supposed to be! We all talk about God. We’re all theologians, whether we realize it or not. In this class, we’ll rescue theology from the ivory tower. Theology should invite us to know God better
